Predicting The Next 10 WWE Universal Champions
5. Samoa Joe
Bálor Club plays things a little bit differently this time. Instead of terrorizing the locker-room and attacking everyone, they keep a focus on the main event scene. Finn Bálor has his eyes set on keeping the Universal Championship on his waist, while Gallows & Anderson do everything in their power to keep that plan alive. Bálor Club thrives and Finn begins to become incredibly cocky. After successful defenses against both Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, Bálor starts believing himself to be the entire reason that Bálor Club is a success. Of course, Gallows & Anderson had been doing much of the heavy lifting, but that's not how Finn sees things.
This cockiness and lack of appreciation towards his brothers eventually leads to Gallows & Anderson leaving the side of Finn Bálor . Unfortunately for him, this happens just as Samoa Joe makes his return from injury (having been violently attacked by Bálor Club back during their initial run) and isn't messing around anymore. Joe has his eyes deadset on the Universal Championship and there's literally nothing that could stop him from getting that gold. Samoa Joe brutalizes Finn Bálor in the SummerSlam 2019 main event and takes the Universal Championship for himself.
